Hollywood action man Chris Hemsworth proved his comedy chops this weekend (07-08Mar15) as he thrilled viewers during his guest-hosting stint on U.S. sketch show Saturday Night Live. The Australian actor kicked off the show by bringing out his real-life siblings Liam and Luke during his opening monologue for a skit with black actor Kenan Thompson, who was introduced as the "fourth Hemsworth brother", with funnywoman Kate McKinnon as their mother.
Hemsworth went on to star as a spaceship crewmember in love with the captain of the aircraft - a real, live chicken, while he mocked the Disney Channel by 'starring' in a corny show called Brother 2 Brother, with SNL regular Taran Killam as his onscreen sibling.
He also joined McKinnon as she impersonated Iggy Azalea on a parody talk show, titled The Iggy Azalea Show, on which she joked about the Fancy hitmaker's online feud with Azealia Banks, played by Sasheer Zamata. Hemsworth portrayed Azalea's rapper cousin as they discussed their top tips for spitting rhymes, while he later showed off his 'twerking' dance skills.
Hemsworth also proved he had no trouble poking fun at himself by spoofing his blockbuster franchise The Avengers.
The Avengers News Report sketch featured the superheroes winning a big battle and then partying on national TV.
Screaming in joy, Hemsworth, dressed as his Norse god character Thor, tells comedian Bobby Moynihan's reporter, "I'm cranked up!", as he performs the Running Man dance and celebrates with Killam as Iron Man and SNL castmember Pete Davidson as The Hulk.

Former Bros star Matt Goss fought back tears on live TV on Thursday (22Jan15) as he opened up about "facing his demons" after returning to his native U.K. following the death of his mother. The singer and his brother Luke were left devastated when their mum Carol lost her battle with cancer last May (14).
Goss lives in the U.S. as he has a residency at a resort in Las Vegas, but he has come back to Britain for a series of shows this month (Jan15).
He has revealed the trip is a difficult one because he is having to face memories of his mum during his time in the U.K.
Speaking on British TV show Loose Women, Goss explains, "I've had a very tumultuous year... My mum (died)... She was my whole world and it left a gaping hole in my life. I made a conscious decision to... acknowledge that hole in my life and part of filling that hole is coming back to my homeland and I'm going to walk through St James's Park (in London), it was the last park me and mum walked through (together). I'm going to have to face the demons and just get through that..."
However, Goss is adamant the trip will help heal his emotional wounds, adding, "It's going to be cathartic to me to just connect as part of that process."

Pop star Kesha has broken her silence to thank fans for their support during her legal battle with music producer Dr. Luke over abuse allegations. The Tik Tok hitmaker hit headlines on 14 October (14) when she filed a lawsuit against her producer, real name Lukasz Gottwald, accusing him of subjecting her to years of sexual, physical, verbal and emotional abuse after he signed her at the age of 18.
Gottwald promptly filed a countersuit, claiming all the allegations were false and that Kesha was trying to extort him to break free from her contract.
The pop singer has kept a low profile since the news emerged, but returned to Twitter.com on Friday (31Oct14) to thank her fans, or "animals".
She writes, "Happy halloween. Thank u (you) to everyone who has given me support over the past few weeks... I've missed my animals!"

One Direction, Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry and the Rolling Stones are among the headliners who will compete for major prizes at the 2014 Billboard Touring Awards. One Direction and Timberlake will compete with the Eagles for the Top Tour trophy, while the two acts will battle country star Luke Bryan for the coveted Top Draw award when the prizes are handed out in New York on 20 November (14).
Arcade Fire, Florida Georgia Line, Sir Paul McCartney and Jason Aldean are also up for top trophies.
Arcade Fire and Florida Georgia Line will take on OneRepublic for the Breakthrough Award, while Lollapalooza in Chicago, the Coachella Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California and the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Austin, Texas will compete for Best Festival.
The most interesting category of all is the fight for this year's Top Boxscore title as it features old rivals McCartney and the Rolling Stones, who sold out the Tokyo Dome in Japan over three nights in November, 2013 and February and March (14), respectively. They will battle One Direction, who packed out Dublin's Croke Park in Ireland in May (14), for the prize.

The Flaming Lips star Wayne Coyne has waded into the legal battle between Kesha and Dr. Luke by accusing the producer of shelving their joint album. The Tik Tok star hit headlines earlier this month (Oct14) when she filed a lawsuit against Dr. Luke, real name Lukasz Gottwald, accusing him of sexual, physical, verbal and emotional abuse.
Gottwald denied the allegations and has filed a countersuit, accusing Kesha of extortion in an effort to break their contract.
Rocker Coyne has now got embroiled in the argument, claiming that Kesha worried about her working relationship with her producer and Dr. Luke was to blame for his joint album project with Kesha being abandoned last year (13).
Coyne tells Radio.com, "The stuff that we did together was just spectacular, and it made us want to do more. And I think we did like four or five songs, and then Kesha would remind me, 'Wayne, I can't put this music out, Dr. Luke will kill me.' I was like, 'Oh! I didn't know!'"
The rocker still hopes the music will be released, adding, "If the music is great, all these other things that get in the way - like the Dr. Luke thing - it's like, 'We can get through that, it'll be OK'. I don't really know the situation, only they do, I hope it works out. I hope that everybody can hear this music, it's great. It will be great (even) if it takes five years to come out. The music that we did together, it's just stellar and I know that's why she wants it to come out.
"I don't know Dr. Luke at all, but when we (Kesha and I) speak, I know there's some anxiety about their relationship. I think she would like to have the freedom to do more things in that spirit... I love Kesha, she's great. Miley (Cyrus) is a lot more of her own entity, I think the success of Hannah Montana has allowed her to be the king of her own destiny. And I think Kesha will get to that eventually. She doesn't have that sort of power now, but I think she will eventually."
Cyrus collaborated with Coyne on the latest The Flaming Lips album.

Singer Kesha has become embroiled in a nasty legal battle with top producer Dr. Luke after accusing him of sexual, physical, verbal and emotional abuse.
The "TiK ToK" star has filed suit against the hitmaker, real name Lukasz Gottwald, claiming the abuse she experienced while working with him led to her 60-day stint in the Timberline Knolls rehab clinic in Illinois earlier this year (14). In the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ.com, she alleges Gottwald has been abusive towards her since signing the singer when she was 18. Kesha claims he once forced himself on her after making her take drugs and drink alcohol on a plane ride, and she once woke up naked in his bed after taking unidentified drugs with no recollection of what happened. He also reportedly physically attacked her at his home in Malibu, California and now the 27 year old is asking a judge to release her from her contract with him. Kesha's lawyer Mark Geragos tells TMZ.com, "This lawsuit is a wholehearted effort by Kesha to regain control of her music career and her personal freedom after suffering for ten years as a victim of mental manipulation, emotional abuse and an instance of sexual assault at the hands of Dr. Luke. "The facts presented in our lawsuit paint a picture of a man who is controlling and willing to commit horrible acts of abuse in an attempt to intimidate an impressionable, talented, young female artist into submission for his personal gain. Kesha is focused on moving her life and her career beyond this terrible time." However, Dr. Luke has fired back at Kesha with his own legal papers, insisting the allegations are all lies. In his countersuit, Luke reveals Kesha has reportedly been attempting to extort him for months by threatening to file the case in court unless he agrees to free her from their contract. His lawyer, Christine Lepera, alleges both Kesha and her mother Patricia Rose 'Pebe' Sebert have privately confessed to making up the sensational statements and she tells TMZ, "(Kesha's abuse lawsuit is part of) a campaign of publishing outrageous and untrue statements (about Dr. Luke)."

Pregnant singer Carrie Underwood is set for a double celebration this week (beg01Sep14) after landing a top nomination at the Country Music Association (CMA) Awards just days after announcing she is expecting her first child.

Country veteran Lambert is also nominated for the Album of the Year prize for her Platinum record, which will compete with Luke Bryan's Crash My Party, Fuse by Keith Urban, Dierks Bentley's Riser and Eric Church's The Outsiders.
Lambert is also the only woman nominated for the coveted Entertainer of the Year prize. She will take on her husband Blake Shelton, as well as Luke Bryan, George Strait and Keith Urban.
